Synopsis

Many believe it is a matter of luck as to whether you are blessed with a baby who sleeps well or are landed with one who doesn't. It isn't. Beatrice Hollyer and Lucy Smith provide clear, sensible and effective advice on how to achieve peaceful, problem-free nights in Sleep - from the first days of infancy throughout childhood. Taking a cue from the baby, and working with their natural instinct, this book puts parents in charge. Avoiding conflict over sleep, this approach builds trust, communication and confidence in your relationship with your baby. Instead of a one-size fits-all approach, Hollyer and Smith offer guidelines that can be adapted for each particular parent and baby. By understanding her needs, reading and responding to her signals and following her lead, you can strongly reinforce your baby's natural tendency to adapt to sleeping all night. Although focusing on establishing good sleep habits from the start of life, the principles put forward in this book can also be used to solve a sleep problem in a child of any age, usually in less than a week.

About this title

About the Author:

Beatrice Hollyer wrote Sleep in collaboration with Lucy Smith, a health visitor with years of hands-on experience whom she first met when her own daughter was ten days old: 'Like a fairy godmother, she made my wish for a soundly sleeping baby come true.' Hollyer and Smith provide clear, sensible and effective advice on how to achieve peaceful, problem-free nights, from the first days of infancy throughout childhood.

Review:

'Just reading Sleep has a calming effect...parents will feel supported and more confident...these feelings will be passed on to their baby, problem-free nights as a result!' - Dilys Daws, The Tavistock Clinic
